Study shows crown conductance sensitivity to vapour pressure deficit in tropical trees, indicating drought effects.
Summary statement We found a consistent, emergent relationship between tropical tree crown conductance and its sensitivity to vapour pressure deficit across diverse species and sites. This reveals convergent stomatal–hydraulic regulation alongside distinct drought sensitivities among plant functional types.
